DESCRIPTION:The one-day, free-to-the-public, academic 'Lifting the Fog' Conference (10 
 AM - 10PM) will provide a focused, principled, and rigorous examination of 
 the many unanswered questions surrounding the destruction of the World 
 Trade Center skyscrapers. Using the extensive bodies of surviving evidence 
 that document these events, Conference presenters will apply the 
 time-tested scientific method to evaluate theories of the attack, both 
 official and alternative.\n\nIn addition to tackling the controversial 
 questions of what brought the skyscrapers down, the Conference will provide 
 a session devoted to the developing story of the public health catastrophe 
 of exposures to the Ground Zero environment. The fact that the EPA allowed 
 politics to eclipse science in their issuance of false assurances that the 
 air was safe to breathe is a sobering example of the fallacy of trusting 
 official conclusions regarding highly charged political events being used 
 to justify wars. \n\nParticipants will
